In Summary

Prof Kobia said the commission supports annual performance contracting in the public service, including the one proposed for teachers, as an accountability mechanism.

She said it was the task of the Teachers Service Commission (TSC) to sit down with teachers and agree on the modes of performance contracts that can apply.
